Elizabeth Warren snubbed in 'first Native American congresswoman' media coverage
Washington Times ^ | August 8, 2018 | Valerie Richardson

Two Democratic candidates are each poised to become the first Native American woman elected to Congress, according to the media consensus, which has prompted the question: What about Sen. Elizabeth Warren?

Democrat Sharice Davids, a member of the Ho-Chunk Nation, won her House primary race Tuesday in Kansas, prompting the Kansas City Star and others to report that she would be “the first Native American woman elected to Congress” if she prevails in November.

The same has been said of Deb Haaland, a member of the Pueblo of Laguna, who captured in June the Democratic nomination for the New Mexico congressional seat being vacated by Rep. Michelle Lujan Grisham, who’s running for governor.

Not mentioned in the post-primary news coverage was the senior senator from Massachusetts, an omission not lost on social media, where references to her dubious claims of Cherokee ancestry are flying thick and fast.

In the same way Hillary never gets credit for all the yoga classes she’s going to. Just a “Looking good, Hill! So toned!” would make it all worthwhile.

“Democrat Sharice Davids, a member of the Ho-Chunk Nation...”

Whew! If we didn’t have pictures I would have thought Davids was a big black woman. :)

Warren claims she’s Indian yet she doesn’t even own a casino. :)

My Dear Fellow Freepers, Before you disparage an individual
Native American by making fun of her/his tribe’s name please do a little research on the Ho-Chunk Nation. They are a very important tribe in Wisconsin. I knew and worked with a number of them and have nothing to say but great things about them and their families. Honorable people.

There is some talk that she is a principal partner in a 'reservation based' tobacco sales company though. Not public knowledge since she is on the record as being against "Big Tobacco"./s
